Update the documentation, and start a PR campaign to get off This may be a narrow PR channel, but I'd focus on getting @deprecated into the built-in function stubs in all the IDEs. In PhpStorm I see lines through the function name, and there's a deprecation section in the "Inspect Code" report. I'm much more likely to notice those than notice changes in online docs or error log notices. But more importantly, anyone writing *new* code will see that feedback immediately.
